Using Siri to perform tasks on your Google Home device was never possible until Apple released Siri Shortcuts in iOS 12.

In this guide, we will explore how hackers scan and decode the information contained in a boarding pass barcode and why.
While hackers adore the command line, working with the GUI (graphical user interface) of an operating system has some advantages. This is especially true when it comes to post-exploitation.

Today, I'm going to introduce to you the PyAutoGUI module, which does just that, and just how much fun you can have with it!

That all changes in Apple Maps' latest update.

Are your Safari tabs a tangled mess? I know mine are. Whenever I try to find an open website on my iPhone, I face dozens, sometimes hundreds of tabs. Yes, there's Search, but it's not perfect if you don't remember the right keyword to narrow the results. That's where custom tab groups come in.
